_Dr. Guthrie to his Son_: "I saw an adage yesterday, in a medical

magazine, which is well worth your remembering and acting on, it is this

wise saying of the great Lord Bacon's:--'Who asks much learns much.' I

remember the day when I did not like by asking, to confess my ignorance.

I have long given up that, and now seize on every opportunity of adding

to my stock of knowledge."
